options.
options.
Volatile
Data stored in volatile memory does not persist through cold boots; see
Volatile memory is used for running and storing programs as well as storing program data and is
also known as RAM memory. The Dolphin 7850 terminal has 64MB of volatile memory by default.
Non-Volatile
Data stored in non-volatile Flash memory does persist through cold boots. The Dolphin 7850 terminal can
have 64MB or 128MB of non-volatile memory depending in your configuration.

IPSM (Internal Persistent Storage Manager) is the on-board Flash memory. Because this memory is non-
volatile, data and programs stored in IPSM are not affected when power is removed or a cold boot
launched. For this reason, default programs and files for Dolphin terminals such as Autoinstall are stored
in IPSM.
